Volume one published 1856, volume two, 1857, volume three, 1864, volume four, 1870. Moritz Abraham Levy (1817-1872) , German Orientalist ... Having received a rabbinical education, he became teacher in the Synagogen-Gemeinde of Breslau, where he was active for nearly thirty years. For his scientific labors he received from the King of Prussia, in 1865, the title of professor. Levy was preeminent in the field of Semitic paleography. He was the first person after Gesenius to treat the subject in a comprehensive manner. In the deciphering and interpretation of Phenician, old Hebrew, Punic, Aramaic, Himyaritic, and later Hebrew coins, seals, gems, and monuments his peculiar intuition guided him more surely than mere philological knowledge did others; such, for example, was the case with his deduction from the inscriptions found on the Hauran that at the beginning of the Christian era an Arabic people lived there which used the Aramaic language and alphabet. - 1906 JE.

Publishers cloth. 8vo. 143, 502, VI pages. 22 cm. First edition. In Hebrew and Yiddish with introduction and table of contents also in English. Title page verso: Yidishe publik? Atsyes in Rat? N-Farband, 1917-1960; Jewish publications in the Soviet Union, 1917-1960. Compiled and arranged by Y. Y. Cohen; with the assistance of M. Piekarz; introductions by Y. Slutski and Kh. Shmeruk; edited by Kh. Shmeruk. Annotated bibliography consisting of 4, 152 entries. The editor, Chone Schmeruk (19211997) , was a historian of Yiddish literature and Ashkenazic Jewry. Khone Shmeruk was born and raised in Warsaw, where he studied in a modern heder and in the Krinski secondary school before beginning studies at the University of Warsaw and the YIVO Institute. In the latter part of his career, he was instrumental in renewing Jewish studies in Poland. From 1939 to 1946, Shmeruk was a refugee in the USSR. He went from there to a displaced persons camp in Stuttgart, and in 1949 immigrated to Israel. He studied in the Yiddish department at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem under Dov Sadan and in the department of Jewish history with Ben-Zion Dinur, Yits? Ak Baer, and Israel Halpern, who directed Shmeruks dissertation on Jewish settlement in Belorussia from 1918 to 1932, for which he earned a doctorate in 1961. For many years Shmeruk was head of the Department of Yiddish at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and in that framework he founded a belles lettres series in 1969 (titled Sifrut Yidish [Yiddish Literature]) and a series of monographs in 1986 (YidishMekorot u-me? Karim [YiddishTexts and Studies]) . He laid the foundations for the Yiddish Press catalog (Index of Yiddish Periodicals; IYP) , and for other collections and recordings, including a bibliography of Yiddish books printed between 1534 and 1750. He also initiated and established the Center for Research and Documentation of East European Jewry (1956) and the Center for Research on the History and Culture of Polish Jews at the Hebrew University (1983) , directing the latter for nine years and forming a model for a similar center, established at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków in 1986. In addition, Shmeruk served as a visiting professor at the University of Warsaw and taught at the University of Lódz.

Small folio, 17, 33pages. First Edition. Inscribed by Vishniac's father, Solomon.With an introductory essay by Abraham Joshua Heschel. A most moving depiction of vibrant Jewish life before the Holocaust. 31 black and white photographs, many now iconic images of Eastern European Jewish life. Original boards, beautiful clean copy in jacket that lacks 3 inches of the spine and has spine label at the bottom but otherwise nice. Inscribed by Vishniac's father, Solomon, in the old Russian style, on the end paper. We had an expert from the Roman Vishniac collection at the Institute for Contemporary Photography take a look at it and this is what they concluded: "Its written in the old Russian language (tsarists times) and says 'In memory to dear Ida Glezer from the devoted friend Solomon Vishnyak (signiture) Roman Vishnyak.' So here we have confirmation. Roman Vishniac's father, Solomon Vishniac, inscribed his son's book to a friend, in the old Russian language of tsarist's times (whereas, Roman Vishniac's Russian was quite modern...So, not signed by Vishniac, but by his father. Confirmed attribution." Very Good Condition in Good Jacket with damaged spine and spine label on jacket only (EE-3-20) xx
